Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 12
1 Gano ge mateeka n’ebiragiro bye musaana okukwatanga n’obwegendereza, nga muli mu nsi Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabo gy’akuwadde okubeera obutaka bwo ebbanga lyonna lye mulimala ku nsi.
These are the statutes and the judgments which you shall observe to do in the land which Adonai, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess it, all the days that you live on the earth.
2 Muzikiririzanga ddala ebifo byonna ebiri ku gasozi ne ku nsozi, ne wansi w’agati aganene,
You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess abad ·served· their deities, on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
3 bannaggwanga be mugenda okutwalako ensi yaabwe gye basinziza; n’amayinja gaabwe mugaasaayasanga, n’empagi zaabwe eza Asera mulizimenyaamenya ne muzookya mu muliro; n’ebibajje ebya bakatonda baabwe mubitemaatemanga n’amannya gaabwe mu bifo ebyo ne mugasanguliramu ddala.
You shall break down their altars, and dash their pillars in pieces, and burn their Asherah poles with fire. You shall cut down the engraved images of their deities. You shall destroy their name out of that place.
4 Mukama Katonda wammwe, ye temumusinzanga mu ngeri eyo nga bali bwe bakola.
You shall not do so to Adonai your God.
5 Mmwe munoonyanga mu bika byammwe byonna, ekifo Mukama Katonda wammwe ky’alibalondera we munaateekanga Erinnya lye ne mumuzimbira awo ennyumba ye ey’okubeerangamu. Mu kifo ekyo gye munaagendanga okumusinza;
But to the place which Adonai your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, you shall seek his habitation, and there you shall come.
6 awo we munaaleetanga ebiweebwayo byammwe ebyokebwa ne biweebwayo ebirala, n’ebitundu byammwe eby’ekkumi, n’ebirabo eby’enjawulo, n’obweyamo bwammwe, n’ebiweebwayo ebya kyeyagalire, n’ebibereberye eby’omu bisibo byammwe n’eby’omu biraalo byammwe.
There you shall bring your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, your vows, your free will offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock.
7 Mmwe n’ab’omu nnyumba zammwe munaaliiranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wammwe, munaasanyukanga ne mwenyumirizanga mu buli kintu kyonna kye munaabanga mukoze n’emikono gyammwe, kubanga Mukama Katonda wo anaabanga akuwadde omukisa.
There you shall eat before Adonai your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which Adonai your God has blessed you.
8 Temukolanga nga bwe tukola wano leero, nga buli omu akola nga bw’alaba ekisaanidde,
You shall not do after all the things that we do here today, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;
9 kubanga temunnatuuka mu kiwummulo ne mu busika Mukama Katonda wammwe bw’abawa.
for you haven’t yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Adonai your God gives you.
10 Naye bwe mulimala okusomoka omugga Yoludaani, ne mubeera mu nsi Mukama Katonda wammwe gy’abawa nga bwe busika bwammwe, ng’abawadde n’okuwummula, nga temukyataataaganyizibwa balabe bammwe abanaabanga babeetoolodde n’okutuula ne mutuulanga mu mirembe;
But when you go over the Jordan [Descender], and dwell in the land which Adonai your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety;
11 kale nno, mu kifo ekyo Mukama Katonda wammwe kyanaabanga yeerondedde okutuuzanga omwo Erinnya lye, omwo mwe munaaleetanga buli kintu kyonna kye mbalagira: ebiweebwayo byammwe ebyokebwa, n’ebiweebwayo ebirala, n’ebitundu byammwe eby’ekkumi, n’ebirabo eby’enjawulo, n’ebirabo ebisinga obulungi mu bintu byammwe bye munaabanga mweyamye okuwaayo eri Mukama.
then it shall happen that to the place which Adonai your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I enjoin you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to Adonai.
12 Munaasanyukiranga awo mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wammwe, mmwe, ne batabani bammwe, ne bawala bammwe, n’abaweereza bammwe abasajja, n’abaweereza bammwe abakazi, n’Abaleevi ab’omu bibuga byammwe, kubanga bo ku bwabwe tebalifuna mugabo oba obusika okufaanana nga mmwe.
You shall rejoice before Adonai your God, you, and your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levite [Descendant of United with] who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
13 Weekuumanga n’otaweerayo biweebwayo by’omu buli kifo kyonna ky’onoolabanga.
Be careful that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;
14 Obiweerengayo mu kifo ekyo ekimu kyokka Mukama ky’anaakulonderanga okuva mu kimu ku bika byo; era omwo mw’onookoleranga ebyo byonna bye nkulagira.
but in the place which Adonai chooses in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I enjoin you.
15 Naye onettiranga ku bisolo ebinaabanga mu bibuga byo, oba mpeewo oba njaza, n’olya ennyama nnyingi nga bw’onooyagalanga, ng’omukisa bwe guli Mukama Katonda wo gw’anaakuwanga. Abalongoofu mu by’emikolo n’abatali balongoofu, bonna banaalyanga.
Notwithstanding, you may kill and eat meat within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to Adonai your God’s blessing which he has given you. The unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle, and as of the deer.
16 Wabula omusaayi temugulyanga; munaaguyiwanga wansi ku ttaka ng’amazzi.
Only you shall not eat the blood. You shall pour it out on the earth like water.
17 Mu bibuga byo toliirangamu kitundu ekimu eky’ekkumi eky’emmere yo ey’empeke, oba ekya wayini wo, oba eky’amafuta go; oba ebibereberye eby’omu bisibo byo n’eby’omu biraalo byo, oba n’obweyamo bwo oba n’ebiweebwayo ebya kyeyagalire; wadde n’ebirabo ebitali bya bulijjo.
You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your free will offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;
18 Onoobiriiranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo, mu kifo ekyo Mukama Katonda wo ky’anaabanga akulondedde; ggwe, ne mutabani wo, ne muwala wo, n’omuweereza wo omusajja n’omuweereza wo omukazi, n’Omuleevi anaabanga mu bibuga byo, era onoosanyukiranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo mu buli kintu kyonna ky’onoobanga okoze n’emikono gyo.
but you shall eat them before Adonai your God in the place which Adonai your God shall choose, you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, and the Levite [Descendant of United with] who is within your gates. You shall rejoice before Adonai your God in all that you put your hand to.
19 Weekuumanga nnyo obutalagajjaliranga Muleevi ebbanga lyonna ly’olimala ng’oli mulamu ku nsi.
Be careful that you don’t forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.
20 Mukama Katonda wo bw’aligaziya amatwale go, nga bwe yakusuubiza, n’oyoyanga okulya ku nnyama ng’ogamba nti, “Nandiyagadde okulya ku nnyama.” Kale, onoolyanga ennyama ennyingi nga bw’onooyagalanga.
When Adonai your God enlarges your border, as he has promised you, and you shall say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat; you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.
21 Ekifo, Mukama Katonda wo ky’anaabanga akulondedde okuteekamu Erinnya lye, bwe kinaabanga kiri wala n’ewuwo kale onooyinzanga okutta ku zimu ku nsolo ez’omu bisibo byo ne mu biraalo byo Mukama by’anaabanga akuwadde, nga bwe nkulagidde; era mu bibuga byo onooyinzanga okulya ennyama ennyingi nga bw’onooyagalanga.
If the place which Adonai your God shall choose, to put his name there, is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which Adonai has given you, as I have enjoined you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.
22 Onoogiryanga nga bw’onoolyanga empeewo n’enjaza. Abalongoofu n’abatali balongoofu bonna banaalyanga.
Even as the gazelle and as the deer is eaten, so you shall eat of it. The unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
23 Naye weekuumenga obutalyanga musaayi; kubanga omusaayi bwe bulamu, ate nga tekikugwaniranga kulyanga bulamu ng’olya ennyama.
Only be sure that you don’t eat the blood; for the blood is the life. You shall not eat the life with the meat.
24 Togulyanga; oguyiwanga wansi ku ttaka ng’amazzi.
You shall not eat it. You shall pour it out on the earth like water.
25 Togulyanga, olyoke obeerenga mu ddembe, ggwe, n’abaana bo, ng’okoze ebituufu mu maaso ga Mukama.
You shall not eat it; that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you shall do that which is right in Adonai’s eyes.
26 Naye ebintu byo ebitukuvu ne byonna by’oneeyamanga okuwaayo, onoobiddiranga n’obitwalanga mu kifo Mukama ky’anaabanga akulondedde.
Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go to the place which Adonai shall choose.
27 Onooleetanga ebiweebwayo byo ebyokebwa, ennyama n’omusaayi, ku Kyoto kya Mukama Katonda wo. Omusaayi gw’ebiweebwayo byo ebirala gunaafukibwanga ku Kyoto kya Mukama Katonda wo, naye ennyama onooyinzanga okugirya.
You shall offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on Adonai your God’s altar; and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on Adonai your God’s altar; and you shall eat the meat.
28 Weegenderezenga okugoberera ebiragiro bino byonna bye nkuwa, olyoke obeenga bulungi, ggwe, n’abaana bo, oluvannyuma lwo, emirembe gyonna, kubanga onoobanga okoze ekituufu mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo.
Observe and sh'ma ·hear obey· all these words which I enjoin you, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in Adonai your God’s eyes.
29 Amawanga ago g’ogenda okulumba ogatwaleko ensi yaabwe, Mukama agenda kugazikiriza nga naawe olaba. Naye bw’obanga omaze okubagoba mu nsi yaabwe, n’okugibeeramu n’ogibeeramu,
When Adonai your God cuts off the nations from before you, where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, and dwell in their land;
30 era ng’amawanga ago gamaze okuzikirizibwa nga naawe olaba, weekuumanga n’otabuuliriza ku bya bakatonda baabwe ng’ogamba nti, “Ab’omu mawanga ago baasinzanga batya bakatonda baabwe, nange njagala nkole bwe ntyo?”
be careful that you are not ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before you; and that you not inquire after their deities, saying, “How do these nations abad ·serve· their deities? I will do likewise.”
31 Mukama Katonda wo tomusinzanga mu ngeri efaanana ng’eya bali, kubanga mu kusinza bakatonda baabwe bakoleramu ebikolobero bingi Mukama by’atayagala, by’akyawa. Bayokya ne batabani baabwe ne bawala baabwe mu muliro nga ssaddaaka eri bakatonda baabwe.
You shall not do so to Adonai your God; for every abomination to Adonai, which he hates, have they done to their deities; for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their deities.
32 Kibagwanidde okunyiikiranga okukolanga buli kintu kye mbalagira, tokyongerangako wadde okukikendeezangako.
Whatever thing I enjoin you, that you shall observe to do. You shall not add to it, nor take away from it.
